Alternative to National?
 
Sadly, I just can’t justify the expense to travel to Cleveland to make the national next month…

Are there any drivable shows (from the Boston area) planned this summer that have a nice collection of vintage cards and memorabilia?

Bummed that I can’t make it to Cleveland - but between air travel and hotel from Boston, I am in the hole $1k before I even step into the show

Thx for any suggestions - I did drive to Philly a year or two ago which was quite good

The Philly Show is one of only a few shows I have set up at beside the National. That would be my first choice.

Is the East Coast National in White Plains bigger than the usual show in White Plains?

The ECN is both upstairs and downstairs. That makes it bigger than the other shows in White Plains.

If you live in the ACELA corridor or AKA the megalopolis, you have access to a decent # of really good shows for older cards. Now you may not get what you want at the price you want, but the card are there for you

Thanks Rich. I'm from CT and used to go to the White Plains show and always had good luck there. Never been when it was both floors though so the ECN sounds good to me.
